Evergreen Trees

At Bento Blog Network, the theme for this week is green.


T's lunch today consisted of:
  • turkey and Swiss cheese sandwich cut into tree shape and topped with baby spinach
  • green tortilla chips
  • celery sticks and Ranch dip in tiny green cup
  • green grapes with 3-D tree pick
  • green tree-shaped marshmallows
  • limeade with one drop of green food color (because I discovered that limeade isn't green!)


According to Wikipedia, "Green is restful to the eye.  Studies show that a green environment can reduce fatigue."

    1. Yes, he's feeling better today, Rebekah. However, his lip is still swollen.
      For those of you who might be wondering...T had a baby tooth (molar) pulled on Monday (the day before this photo was taken). It was very traumatic for him...as going to the dentist always is! :P
